Sharief had married a close relative and had three children with the wife. The couple separated after a family fight. Nine years ago, Sharief married a girl from Banglegudde in Karkala, but, as his addictions gave rise to repeated fights in the house, the couple started living separately since about year ago.

A case has been registered at the Karkala Town Police Station and the officers are investigating the death of Sharief.
